[ACCEPTED]-vbscript : fso.opentextfile permission denied-file-permissions
I don't think this has to do with File Permissions 14 per se. It has to do with the fact that 13 you've created the file using:
Set objFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(strDirectory & strFile)
That creates 12 the file...and carries a reference to that 11 file (objFile)
Then you don't close the file 10 before you destroy the reference
...
'Missing objFile.Close here
Set objFile = nothing
Set objFolder = nothing
...
Consequently 9 you're destroying the reference but leaving 8 the textstream open in memory thus locking 7 your file.
You are then proceeding to attempt 6 to re-open the file while the file is already 5 "open". This is a little long winded, you've 4 already got a reference after you've created 3 the file - it would be easier just to write 2 straight to that rather than destroy the 1 reference before creating another one.
for what its worth...
I was convinced I had 7 a permission error because of this line:
Set LogFile = LogFSO.OpenTextFile(LogFileName, ForWriting, True)
Because 6 that's the line that the 'permission denied' error 5 pointed to. But in fact, my permission error 4 was a few lines further down:
WshShell.AppActivate(ScreensToRemove(i))
WshShell.SendKeys ("~")
WScript.Sleep(1000)
There was no 3 screen with such a caption, so the SendKeys 2 is what did not have permission.
The solution, of 1 course, was:
If WshShell.AppActivate(ScreensToRemove(i)) = True Then
WshShell.SendKeys ("~")
WScript.Sleep(1000)
End if
Hope that might help.
Also, make sure that you don't have the 2 file open in Excel (I had this problem with 1 a .csv file)...
In my particular case the file which existed 2 before and all I had to do was give permission 1 to the Everyone user
balabaster is exactly right. You either 3 need to close the file before reopening 2 it a second time for writing, or using the 1 existing open handle.
